I nominate 05-15-1996 at Brixton. Dat gorgeous acoustic set, Ruby-->Porcelina-->Bodies, it was at the height of the band's popularity, well within the golden era, it was one of the last shows before everything went to shit, plus it was allegedly proshot (but they somehow lost the tapes), D'arcy looked really hot.

Penultimate show at United Center is also incredible.

too many to pick out one

Pinkpop 94
Düsseldorf 96
Brixton 96-05-15 (what do you mean "allegedly proshot - we have the recording, it IS proshot)
and about 5 in 98

This is one of the best from the MCIS tour with the original line up:

this is probably my favorite ever acoustic show they did..
everything is great, the recording is perfect, the setlist is great, great banter, they sounded great, all of the vocals are great, one of the rare recordings of cherub rock where billy and d'arcy are singing in harmony..
but what's actually the best thing is that the whole band sounds very laid-back and cool.. those were the days

No, about half of it until someone crashed on the camera.
